Claudia Sheinbaum has secured a landslide victory, becoming Mexico’s first female president and inheriting the legacy of her mentor, outgoing leader Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador. Apexnewsgh reports
With a projected 58.3-60.7% of the vote, Sheinbaum’s win marks the highest vote tally percentage in Mexico’s democratic history.
The ruling coalition is also poised for a potential two-thirds supermajority in Congress, enabling them to pass constitutional reforms without opposition support. Sheinbaum’s victory is a significant milestone in a country known for its macho culture and traditional values.
Despite the challenges ahead, including a budget deficit and low economic growth, Sheinbaum has promised fiscal responsibility and respect for the central bank’s autonomy. Her presidency begins on October 1, and she will face the daunting tasks of addressing poverty, violence, and gender inequality.
The election was marred by violence, with two voters killed and 38 candidates murdered during the campaign. Sheinbaum’s win is a testament to the changing times in Mexico, where women’s roles and rights are increasingly recognized. As one supporter, Edelmira Montiel, noted, “Thank God that has changed, and I get to live it.”
